The arbitration will be under the rules of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) effective on the date the contract comes into force. There will be three arbitrators. Arbitration proceedings will be held in English, in Washington, D.C. or such other place the parties mutually agree, subject to the approval of the Center and arbitral tribunal. The arbitral tribunal will determine how the costs of the proceedings (costs and fees incurred and imposed by the Centre and the arbitrators) are assessed between the two parties. Each party will pay for its own costs and attorney fees. Any procedural issue that can't be determined under the rules of ICSID will be determined under the governing law. The arbitrators, by majority vote, render a written decision and publicly state it within 3 months after the hearing has concluded. Any monetary award will be payable in dollars through a bank designated by the recipient and any award to LIBINC Oil Palm Inc. will not be subject to taxes and duties. Neither party will have liability for consequential damages or exemplary or punitive damages. Interest will be applied at a rate of LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus one percentage point from the date of the award until satisfaction. If LIBOR is no longer reported, then another agreed substitute rate should be applied. If the decision of the arbitral tribunal is adverse to either party, the tribunal, in its discretion, may allow a grace period to cure defect or default, up to 180 days from the time that payment would have been required. The Liberian government waives any defense related to sovereign immunity. The right to refer a claim or dispute to arbitration will not be affected by the fact that either party has received partial compensation from another person for a loss or injury related to the claim or dispute. That person may participate in the proceedings. The award may contain orders such as specific performance, setoff, other equitable relief or monetary damage. The parties will take all actions necessary to completely fulfill the award, which is binding and enforceable against them. The consent to jurisdiction of ICSID will equally bind any successors or successors-in-interest to each party. Should ICSID be replaced by or functions transferred to another international organization, the parties will have the right to submit any dispute to that body for settlement. If ICSID ceases to exist without replacement, the parties may submit disputes to other centers mutually agreed upon. At all times, the right to arbitration is fully binding on both parties. LIBINC Oil Palm Inc. is authorized to continue operations consistent with the terms of the contract during the pendency of a decision of a referee or arbitral tribunal. At the request of either party and subject to approval by the other party, any matter can instead be referred to a single referee appointed by the Secretary General of ICSID. Referring the matter to a single referee does not apply to disputes arising out of provisions of the contract related to the grant of rights, conduct of operations, income taxation, surface rental, payments to Liberian government, financial reporting and currency; records, reports and inspection; termination; disposition of assets; governing law; periodic review and survival and severability provisions; unless the parties agree the dispute is not material. The decision of the referee will be final and binding unless appealed by either party to arbitrators who will examine the decision only as to manifest error of law, findings of fact not supported by credible evidence, and abuse of authority, misconduct or other unauthorized act by the referee.--Art. 24.1, 24.4 and 1.6\n","shapes":[{"type":"rect","geometry":{"x":0.11,"width":0.044285714285714,"y":0.30809382422803,"height":0.027096199524941}}],"category":"Arbitration and dispute resolution","tags":"","page":25,"document_page_no":25,"id":""},"url":"","user_id":1,"document_page_no":25},{"contract_id":"","annotation":{"url":"","text":"Indemnification will be defined in the arbitral award.

If the dispute was not resolved by amicable settlement, a party may only raise the claim under the dispute resolution provisions of the ICSID convention. Arbitration and ICSID claims are exclusive from one another (no parallel, successive, or duplicate actions are admitted from the same alleged acts)\nThe parties will seek an amicable settlement of any dispute and try to negotiate an amicable resolution, but are under no obligation to agree on a settlement. If the dispute has not been resolved within 60 days of the dispute notification (or any other period agreed upon by the parties), any party may initiate an amicable resolution procedure. The companies and the government must continue the performance of the contractual operations and obligations during any dispute, except when a specific operation or obligation cannot be undertaken or completed without the resolution.\nIn a technical dispute, the parties must submit the matter to a confidential, administered expertise proceedings in English and French, under the Rules for Expertise of the International Chamber of Commerce (or the contract, where different). The dispute will be heard by an impartial and independent expert with recognized, professional, and relevant experience (unless agreed otherwise in writing) and the parties will bear the costs equally. The party submitting a resolution request to the ICC must propose an expert; the responding parties must agree to the appointment under 90 days or nominate another expert. If the parties have not reached an agreement within 90 days (or another term agreed upon in writing), the ICC International Centre for Expertise will appoint the expert. The expert will deliver the draft report of the findings within 90 days (unless agreed otherwise). The parties have 10 days to comment, after which the expert has 10 days to deliver the decision. The decision will be binding on the parties unless and until it is revised in an amicable settlement or arbitral award. It will be final unless party notifies its dissatisfaction within 30 days. Otherwise, of if the expert does not hand in the decision on time, the dispute will be referred to arbitration. If a party fails to comply, the failure may be referred to arbitration.\nAny unresolved dispute not excluded will be settled confidentially under the rules of arbitration of the ICC (and the contract, where different) in Paris, and in both French and English. The dispute will be heard by 3 impartial and independent arbitrators. Each side will nominate one arbitrator (if necessary, several parties jointly). To the maximum extent permitted by law, the state on the one hand and the project parties on the other shall retain their respective abilities to nominate one arbitrator each. If an arbitrator fails to be appointed within 90 days of commencement of arbitration, or if the two arbitrators, once appointed, fail to appoint the third within 30 days, the ICC will make the appointment. No remedy proceedings before Cameroonian jurisdictions (unless specifically agreed in writing or required under international norms) will be required for arbitration.

In the event of conflict between ICSID rules and the contract, the contract prevails. Either party to the contract may institute arbitration proceedings by giving notice to the other party and the Secretary General of ICSID. Each party appoints one arbitrator, and the Secretary General of ICSID will appoint a third arbitrator who is neither a citizen of Liberia or Malaysia and will serve as president of the arbitral tribunal. All arbitrators will be qualified to serve as arbitrators in the matter submitted and none will have an interest in the matter. Arbitration proceedings will be held in English, in Washington, D.C. or such other place the parties mutually agree, subject to the approval of the Centre and arbitral tribunal. The arbitral tribunal will determine how the costs of the proceedings (costs and fees incurred and imposed by the Centre and the arbitrators) are assessed between the two parties. Each party shall pay for its own costs and attorney fees. Any procedural issue that can't be determined under the rules of ICSID will be determined under the governing law.

If the decision of the arbitral tribunal is adverse to either party, the tribunal, in its discretion, may allow a grace period to cure defect or default, up to 180 days from the time that payment would have been required. The Liberian government waives any defense related to sovereign immunity. The right to refer a claim or dispute to arbitration will not be affected by the fact that either party has received partial compensation from another person for a loss or injury related to the claim or dispute. That person may participate in the proceedings. The award may contain orders such as specific performance, setoff, other equitable relief or monetary damage. The parties shall take all actions necessary to completely fulfill the award which is binding and enforceable against them. The consent to jurisdiction of ICSID shall equally bind any successors or successors-in-interest to each party. Should ICSID be replaced by or functions transferred to another international organization, the parties will have the right to submit any dispute to that body for settlement. If ICSID ceases to exist without replacement, the parties may submit disputes to other centers mutually agreed upon. At all times, the right to arbitration is fully binding on both parties.

The parties agree that the contract and the concessionaire's operations constitute an \u201cinvestment\u201d by reason of the expenditure of a considerable amount in the Republic and any dispute subject to these provisions is a legal dispute arising directly out of an investment.

No arbitrator will have an interest in the matters in dispute, or in the parties.\nAs a request of a party, any matter otherwise subject to arbitration under the agreement may instead by referred for resolution to a single referee appointed by the Secretary-General of the Centre, or of any successor entity, except for any dispute arising out of articles 3, 6 and 29 of the agreement, which must be referred to arbitrators unless the parties agree that any such dispute is not material, in which event it may be referred to the referee for decision at the option of either party. The decision of the referee will be rendered pursuant to article 31.6 of the contract (except as regards the requirement for a decision by majority vote) and will be final and binding unless appealed by any party to arbitrators, who must examine the referee's decision only as to manifest errors of law, findings of fact that are not supported by any credible evidence, and abuse of authority, misconduct or other unauthorized act by the referee.\nArbitration proceedings will be held in Brussels, Belgium or such other place as the parties agree and will be in English.

Any monetary award must be assessed and payable in dollars (at prevailing market rate of exchange if the award involved an obligation in another currency) through a bank designated by the recipient. In the case of an award to the concessionaire, the award will be exempt from any taxes and duties. Each party must bear its own costs and attorney fees. Neither party to the proceedings will have any liability for either consequential damages (except for purposes of set off) or exemplary or punitive damages. Interest at a rate not to exceed the London Interbank Offering Rate existing at the time of such award, plus 1%, multiplied by the amount of the award, will be assessed from the date of any monetary award until its satisfaction. If LIBOR should cease to be reported, then the rate to be applied shall be another substitute rate agreed to by a majority of the tribunal.
